    Nigel Farage: An Apology. I suggested he would receive a £73,000-a year pension when Britain leaves the EU. I now understand this is not the case. He will receive 2 EU pensions totalling £132,000 a year. I apologise for any suggestion that he is anything other than a hypocrite.

    Now is the time to remember Boris Johnson gets paid £5,200 a week by The Daily Telegraph.

    The sight of a fifty-something man - who claims to be an educationalist - trolling and bullying a 16-year-old girl, who simply wants nations of the world to have an urgent debate about climate change, is very disturbing.

    Two years ago - aged 50, weighing 22st, with T2 diabetes - climbing to the summit of Snowdon was unfathomable. Today, 100lbs lighter and in remission from T2, I've done it. Thank you everyone for your amazing support and inspiration. #Adventures4Health uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-dis…

    Get well soon @BorisJohnson. You are a very important essential worker and we need you back on fighting form as soon as possible.

    The core values of the EU are: Internationalism, Solidarity, Freedom. They are British, Labour values. Our future doesn’t need to be Brexit. We can change our future. But only if Labour makes the case for it – and we must. #proudlybritishproudlyeuropean

    Brexit is stuck in the parliamentary pipework. The impasse works for neither Leavers or Remainers. I have come to the reluctant view that the only way to resolve this is for the country to have the final say. Tomorrow I will join the #PutItToThePeople march.

    Congratulations @joswinson on becoming the leader of the Liberal Democrats. I hope we can work together to stop a disastrous no deal Brexit.

    Labour won’t defeat Nigel Farage by being mealy-mouthed and sounding as if we half agree with him. We won’t win if we sit on the fence about the most crucial issue that has faced our country for many generations.

    We do not have a “new government.” This action is an utterly scandalous affront to our democracy. We cannot let this happen.

    He offers divisive opposition not responsible leadership. He changed his position on how we leave the EU. He still can't explain where his chum Aaron Banks got the cash for the biggest ever political donation. I will take no lessons in lies and dishonesty from Nigel Farage.

    Tom Watson has broken his promises to the people. The second referendum that he backs is a total insult to 5 million Brexit Labour voters. I now intend to wholeheartedly target Labour lies and dishonesty in the weeks ahead.

    The Prime Minister claims she speaks for Britain. Well, have a look out of the window Prime Minister. Open your curtains. Switch on your TV. Look at this great crowd today. Here are the people. Theresa May: you don’t speak for us. #PutItToThePeople
